14 Things You Didn't Know About Keenan Kampa

September 6, 2015

It’s no secret that we love us some Keenan Kampa here at DS. We’re so excited about the release of High Strung, slated for January 2016, and love hearing about the film’s stars and their experiences (so much so that we did an entire feature!). Kampa spoke with Dance Informa about everything ranging from why she started ballet to her favorite moment from working on High Strung.

Some highlights include her preferred method of pointe shoe fill (gauze) and why she identified with her High Strung character, Ruby: “Looking back at where I’ve been with dance, I can see a lot of myself in her. I can see how I’ve grown and matured since then into a more confident and assured artist. It was interesting to remember that age, where you’re choosing to step out and really reveal yourself as an artist.” Be sure to check out the full interview here!
